Apart from its socio-economic role, the forests also play an important protective function such as the maintenance of environmental stability, minimization of damage to rivers and agriculture land by floods and erosion and the safeguarding of water supplies. The forest area in Peninsular Malaysia has decreased from 1990 - 1998. The reason would be because of rapid development in Malaysia during that period. To maintain source and forest area, present forest management should be maintain and upgraded. This is not only to assure long term wood supply but also to preserve stability of environment and wildlife.
